*The times shown may change, depending on DST settings
City/Town: Zurich
Event Type: Drinks/Bar
Meeting Point: Barflyz - Zurich

First (of hopefully many) meetings of the Zurich Grub Club, the supper club for foodies who like good food and a bit of banter.

as this is the first catch up, we can have a couple of beers and get to know each other, putting faces to names and all that...

I suggest we meet at Barflyz, Gotthardstrasse 21, 8002 Zürich (map here), next door to the Park Hyatt, but I'm open to suggestion if the majority rather going somewhere else.

I hope to see lot of you, but joining the Club and RSVP will be appreciate it so I can book a part of the bar if needed.

Nom nom nom everyone!!
RSVP'd Yes: 8 (6 members and 2 guests) RSVP'd Maybe: 6 (6 members and No guests) RSVP'd No: 4
  • Marisa_CH - Unfortunately we'll be out of town but very interested in joining the club. Hopefully next time!
  • HashBrown
  • summerrain - Its now a no, sorry. Murray Perahia calls!
  • Pepper08 - sorry, can't make it last minute. but will join next time.
RSVP sign-ups for this event are now closed.

Actually, 6? 10? I probably would only have space for a total of 4....
then when your turn comes you'll only host 4... no problem

Re: The Zurich Grub Club (nom nom nom...)

I'm already busy with so many dining events, with potlucks and as organiser for the Zurich Dineout group at meetup.com that I don't think I could handle yet another.

Great idea and good luck with the cooking.

Re: The Zurich Grub Club (nom nom nom...)

I'm really keen. Love the idea and have found out that our attic in summer is actually survivable so with makeshift tables could seat maybe 30 + whoever else could fit in the rest of the appartment!! Shame I live in Meierskappel LU and am reasonably broke at the moment... (30 people 10 CHF per head= more than my weekly/monthly wage hehe)

But stealing from the walterguariento's idea. If anyone round this way would like a similar thing going on in the near future drop me a line.

Hope this bumps without having to bump

Kiwi Lad - you don't have to pay! We arrange a budget beforehand and all contribute.

You never know, Luzern is not that far away from ZH... depending on how it goes we may decide to organize a "Grub Club day out" and come to pay you a visit...

careful what you wish for

Re: The Zurich Grub Club (nom nom nom...)

I would join, but my flat and dinner table limits the meeting sessions to 4 attendants, (3 guests, as I would like to be present myself)

Doc.

you did dude, but don't say you didn't know ... I think I bumped this thread so many times that I'm surprise the Mods didn't shout at me for it

Doc, it doesn't matter... as I said upthread to Miss Lizzy, if you can only host for 3 guests, then when your turn comes you'll only host for 3 guests... No problems... so lookinig forward to seeing you soon
